So, you're saying this isn't necessary. And that does sound plausible. But other than doing the same isolation twice, is there a particular downside to it? Like slower operation? What would you recommend doing instead? Running rootful docker in an unprivileged LXC or running rootless docker in a...

Hmm, I have a Samba share on which the problematic ISO is sitting. The same share is available on the target node as well. The names are identical. And yet, it errors out. I believe that in my situation (at least), it should not error out but transfer the VM. And I agree that there should be...

First of all, thank you for this new project. I have been waiting for the ability to migrate VMs out of my cluster for a long time and now it seems to be within my grasp. BTW: I was expecting this functionality to be implemented directly into PVE but your implementation is probably better...

Good point, I have updated my OP with comments on this.

Hi, so I have a small home lab cluster of 3 PVE nodes and one additional PBS. And I have the following networks (each on separate NICs/cables/switches): - Management - Corosync - Ceph - Backup The PVE nodes are connected to all networks. The PBS in only connected to Management and Backup...

Hi, first of all: Thank you very much for PBS (and PVE). It is such a great piece of software. Currently, I can search the backups on PBS by selecting the VM and then an individual backup by date. There, I can dive into the file system and retrieve a file. Sometimes, I would like to first...

Seeing that there doesn't seem to be a solution where there is only one PBS that doesn't sit on the same network as the PVE (safe piercing a hole in the firewall that ought to separate the networks), I would like to understand whether the following would be possible: There is one small PBS on...

Yeah, that's what I have currently, but I was wondering whether there might be another setup that doesn't require two separate PBSs.

For me, it has been working since I adopted names which the systems wouldn't use (like lan0 and lan1).

So I have been running a PBS to complement my home lab PVE cluster for a while now and everything works beautifully. And yet I am not fully happy because if my (management) network ever were breached and my VMs compromised, the next steps for an attacker would be to go after my backups. And if...

I must have, because I got vGPU working after a while. But I don't remember the exact steps unfortunately. But I gave up on using vGPU because - it was flaky, hit and miss - the concept of dividing my card into virtual GPUs isn't actually right for my use case because I keep experimenting and...

So I have PBS running to backup my home lab cluster. And it is working fine and I backup everything there and from there on tape as well. As data protection is becoming more and more important, I am wondering whether there is a way to selectively remove individual files or folders from not just...

This may have been the decisive advice. I wanted to keep my to-be-replaced node untouched until the replacement node was completely up to speed. And I had thought that monitors, OSDs, etc. on an offline node would have no negative impact. But with your advice, I booted up the to-be-replaced...

Oh FFS! How can there even be something like an IB card that can't do IB? Anways, so does the "EN" signify cards that can't do IB? In other words, when I buy new cards, will I be safe, if I avoid "EN" cards? Is there anything else that I would want to avoid? Is there any value in buying "VPI"...

Man, this is proving so much more complicated than I anticipated (and I did anticipate issues...)! So mstconfig tells me Device #1: ---------- Device type: ConnectX3Pro Device: 65:00.0 Configurations: Next Boot SRIOV_EN...

There is one monitor on each of the three (online) nodes (and one on the offline node as well). Understood. But I would need to so many OSDs per node that my energy bill would become fully unsustainable :( However, this should not affect rebalancing, right?

Hi, I am getting SMART error notifications from PVE every day about the same one error (there is 1 unreadable sector on one of the SSDs). While I appreciate the notification in principle, I don't need to be reminded of the error every day. And if nothing changes, I think I can live with that...

No, I just shut the node down. Ceph complains about the missing node and the missing OSDs. But it did copy over a good part to the new node and new OSDs before it stopped. The same goes for the monitor service. But there are enough monitors in the cluster. Between 44% and 55% I don't have...

Hi, I have a small three node cluster. There are two pools with three OSDs each. Each node hosts one OSD from each pool (one HDD, one SSD). Replication rule is 3/2. When one of the OSDs in one of the nodes started acting up, I decided to not just replace the OSD but to also replace the entire...

So, I have made the step and connected everything but hit a wall: While I can see the cards in the PVE GUI and have assigned them IP addresses and they start up, they can't connect to one another via the switch. At first I thought that I needed to change some settings on the switch (and that...
